Jun 13, 2025
Multi-Factor Authentication
Okta Identity Engine
Overview
This article examines the continued compatibility of Multi-Factor authentication (MFA) with JAMF Connect.
Applies To
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
- JAMF
- Okta Identity Engine (OIE)
Solution
Okta Verify will continue to work as expected on macOS Devices. This is relevant if JAMF was configured to prompt re-authentication for certain actions, like reboot.
YubiKey and WebAuth do not work in JAMF Connect after upgrading to Okta Identity Engine. This limitation is from JAMF Connect, which does not currently support these authenticators. However, they were supported in the Okta Classic Engine.
If Yubikey or WebAuthN has been configured, Okta Verify has to be configured post-upgrade.
